Nice, but I don't see how he's class 100.

What class would you place him in?

Great Thread.

@odin619360: 60

Man, I wish this movie had a tighter plot, could have been something great.

Nice respect thread.

Thanks.

The whale feat is what sealed the deal for me. The whale is around 40 tons, and he threw it over at least 100 meters (probably much more) with absurd ease. Like, it was as easy for him as throwing a tennis ball over 10 meters would be for you. Managing to just lift the whale with some difficulty would put him at 40 ton class more or less, but throwing it that far and with such ease is something else entirely.

@tvc-15: @odin619360: Thanks.

@the_red_viper: awesome respect thread, man.

@sladerulez: Thank you.

Very nice dude

@jayc1324: Thanks.

still gets his arse handed to him by dceu supes

@donwayneii: I agree.

@the_red_viper: nah but seriously good thread, also thats defo more than 100m more like half a mile/1km

Nice thread. How do you have two spoilers in each section though?

@the_red_viper: hey, I have a calc for the scene where he takes the boy up to the sky,

Assuming the boy is quite overweight at 100 lbs, and assuming he fell for 25 seconds, then that's 3062 meters/3.062 km/1.9 miles

Looks like a short timeframe, so even if it's 3 seconds, that's basically Mach 3.

And that's a low end estimate.

Anyway, good RT

@dstreet45: It's a bug that happens whenever you post a blog entry to a forum. Thanks for the compliment.

@battle123axe: Nice, good calc man. And thanks.

@the_red_viper: Ah. Dang I was hoping there was a way to insert spoiler blocks within spoiler blocks.

@the_red_viper: no problems, and all the kudos go to you, it is a great RT

Great thread.

Nice thread, loved this movie watched it when I was like 9 in the cinema.

Dang, I was gonna do this. Nice thread though.

@battle123axe: @superhero24: @tj849: @terry2012: Thanks folks.

@the_red_viper: You are welcome.

nice, put that he has weather manipulation

Where does he do that? The storm was Mary's doing.

@the_red_viper: he was summoning the tornadoes and mary summoned the lightning i think.

No, she summoned the tornadoes too.

@the_red_viper: proof?

Why would he summon tornadoes to attack himself..?

They dont have weather manipulation. That storm is directly caused from them fighting and being together it takes the both of them to create that storm. None have any feats or evidence besides this to do it on their own. You forgot to add his best strength/durability feat. He stops a full train by ramming it and took no damage at all.

@the_red_viper: show me

Just go to YouTube.

The storm was summoned by Mary, the only time that the weather changed in the movie was when Mary was fighting Hancock, none of that ever happened when they were together but not fighting. It didn't happen when she threw him through the kitchen wall in their home. She summoned it at will.

And the train feat is there.

While they were fighting they caused it to snow, but Hancock created the tornadoes and Mary created the lightning. My guess is...Hancock doesn't know how to control his powers. The lightning was constantly tracking Hancock.

Again, why would he attack himself with tornadoes..?

@the_red_viper: Good question...and the answer is he didn't. He did get shocked a lot, though. That's just what environmental destruction does.

I don't know if Y'all are familiar with this theory but this is the prevailing one regarding Hancock's origins.

In the movie, there's no real explanation about where Hancock came from. It's said by Mary that they were created "by the gods," and that's about it. There's a persistent fan theory that Hancock is, in fact, a god: specifically, Zeus .

Consider Hancock's love of eagles. An eagle served as Zeus' messenger and companion . And remember at the end of Hancock when he flies off with an eagle?

Also, At one point, Mary says that she and Hancock are brother and sister. Then she later says they're married. That's pretty gross, but it also could be a reference to Zeus and Hera, who were both siblings and lovers. Yeah, the Greeks were freaky like that.

Regarding the storms apparently Hancock can control and summon high winds and tornadoes as displayed in the fight against Mary. Although its never directly stated in the film, the director Peter Berg has reportedly clarified that is is in fact Hancock who is summoning the tornadoes and Mary is summoning the lightning. Fits well with the Zeus theory too.

I don't know how much I subscribe to that theory, but it's very cool nevertheless.

If Peter Berg really did confirm that, then it's something else entirely. If you can provide the source (video/interview/article/whatever), then I'd gladly put it in the OP and give you credit for it. However, with no evidence, it is still open to interpretation whether it was Hancock or Mary who caused the weather changes (I always thought it was Mary. She even stated that she was more powerful than Hancock earlier in the movie).

Well, in the scene, the three twisters appeared around Hancock, surrounding him. In my eyes it always looked as if Mary summoned them to attack him. Point being, it's open to interpretation whether it was him or her who controlled the weather, but if @deltahuman can find where Berg stated that it was Hancock who was responsible for it then it's something else entirely.

@the_red_viper: I thought the same before. If Peter Berg really didn't state it was Hancock who created the tornadoes, then Hancock created the tornadoes after he got furious and escaped from truck sized rubble. Mary said she was stronger than Hancock, but at the end Hancock ultimately pinned Mary down. It's obvious Mary is lying.

This is great, however, he didn’t fly Michael Myers up, he threw him to the sky.
